These changes have, to the maximum practical
extent, been incorporated into this updated version of the ASOS User’s Guide. These changes
include the transition of observing code format from the Surface Aviation Observation (SAO)
code to the Aviation Routine Weather Report (METAR) code in 1996; the implementation of new
software loads into ASOS up to and including software Version 2.6; the incorporation of various
sensor enhancements and improvements, including modification to the Heated Tipping Bucket
precipitation accumulation gauge, the hygrothermometer, and anemometer; and incorporation of
the Freezing Rain and Lightning Sensors into the ASOS sensor suite. Additional product improvement
efforts are underway to further expand and improve the capabilities of ASOS. These efforts
are also described in the ASOS User’s Guide.]]> ASOS NWS Tue, 07 Oct 2008 09:22:57 +0000 http://www.weatherobserver.org/download.php?view.2 http://www.weatherobserver.org/download.php?view.1 This order prescribes aviation surface
